Not seen much about the brand new Exposure Toro which is supposed to be pumped up to 2000 lumens and have a better spread than old.
I know Maxx D is the default for expensive flood bar lights but Toro is that bit cheaper and lighter. Is it going to be as good for night time trail riding or should I be stumping the extra for the Maxx D?
Pairs with a Diablo MKV on lid. Have a road set too so not bothered about using the Toro on road.
Or should I be looking at the Strada? only 1000 lumens but supposed to have a really floody pattern, the comparison pics on USE's site look very good.
Cheers
Haven't used a Maxx D so can't comment but I bought a Toro last year and it's what I need. If this year's model has been upgraded I think you'll be fine.
I run a new race with a new joystick, spot on combo and keeps weight down
I've got both of last years models, which are pretty identical to this year's, I doubt you'd notice a difference.
The Maxxd has a wider beam, for sure. But the Toro is a great little light and a good amount cheaper and a bit lighter.
If your trails are narrow, then the Toro is perfect. If you're riding wide Downhill trails at night, I'd prefer the Maxxd.
Also, if I were riding for more then say 5 hours, I'd prefer the Maxxd for the longer burn time for the same lumens.
Ask me more questions if you like 🙂
